The Sunflow er Seeds are digging in their heels and getting things organized and ready for June 26th - our Zeal for Teal Crop day (and more!) We can hardly wait - although we still have lots to do. It sure looks like we are in for a great day of fun and fundraising in the merriest sense.There is nothing funny about ovarian cancer and its often dismal diagnosis but from someone who has been there, I discovered that it is a waste of time sitting around bemoaning one's fate.
Amanda challenged me to get involved with the Winner's Walk of Hope and Ovarian Cancer Canada. So I took her up on it. I now choose to surround myself with happy people and those who look at the half full glass. That would be you!
I will be sharing a little bit about ovarian cancer and my journey at Zeal for Teal, and will be encouraging participants to think about their own bodies and to be alert to any untoward signs and symptoms. But the day is going to focus on hope and health and happiness! Make sure you register soon!
Zeal for Teal promises to be an upbeat, extravaganza for scrapbookers and cardmakers - beginners and seasoned pros.
Don't forget - we have a beginner's class for our rookies!
We are even inviting interested people to drop in for a cup of coffee and snack, and to browse our Vendor Alley (for a mere $5 that goes straight to Ovarian Cancer Canada)
Don't forget the complimentary mini manicures, too, courtesy of Janet Wilson our onsite esthetician, extraordinairre. Prepare to be pampered.
And isn't that a great segue into our next featured Vendor Alley patron - Deanna Faris? Deanna is our Pampered Chef consultant who is making the long trip from Cookstown. She heard about our Zeal for Teal and is excited to come and join us for the day and show her fine products.
Deanna is a stay at home mom of two little darlings and one on the way! When she is not tending to her little ones, she keeps herself busy selling Pampered Chef products.
"I work mostly at home parties for social nights, bridal showers and fundraisers," Deanna says.
We are thrilled to have her join us for our Zeal for Teal 'party,' too.
Pampered Chef is a quality product with some wonderful and handy gadgets for the kitchen.
"Pampered Chef offers many tools to make life easier in the kitchen," Deanna says, as she considers the versatility of her product. "From our handy garlic press and food chopper to our full line of stainless steel cookware, and forged stainless steel cutlery, Pampered Chef has many ways to save you time and make meal prep more enjoyable and interesting!"
Now that might just be worth investigating. I'm all for saving time. :)
It just so happens that Deanna has some June show specials on, too.
" The month of June offers all Pampered Chef guests, with orders over $80 their choice of one of our "Corn Companions" FREE! Choices are either the Kernel Cutter, or the Corn Cob Nobs and Corn Butterer!" Deanna tells us.
MMMMmmm fresh corn on the cob. Can't wait. 
Deanna tells us she is excited to be part of our special day.
" I look forward to the fun atmosphere of this event and helping to raise money for such a worthy cause!
And...are you ready for this? Deanna is donating, as a door prize or silent auction item, a Large Stone Bar Pan. Wow! Where's my draw ticket? |
